Heat storage in the Andaman Sea
(India Meteorological Department, 1981)
Heat storage in the Andaman Sea in upper 20 m, where a strong halocline seems to inhibit vertical heat transport has been evaluated and discussed in relation to the other parameters of heat budget. Estimation of annual ...
Microenvironments and anomalous benthic foraminiferal distribution within the neritic regime of the Dabhol-Vengurla sector (Arabian Sea)
(Universita' degli Studi di Milano, 1980)
An anomalous distribution of benthic Foraminifera within the neritic regime at a few stations indicates the existence of microenvironments. The vertical distribution is marked by the restricted occurrence of @iCibicides@@ ...
Standing stock and biochemical composition of zooplankton in the northeastern Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
During November-December 1985 - a period of this study showed significant difference in biomass (dry weight) among the coastal and oceanic waters. Ostracods were the predominant component (47 per cent) in the coastal zone ...
Distribution and seasonal abundance of carangid larvae in the Arabian sea and Bay of Bengal
(Mangalore: Asian Fisheries Society, Indian Branch, 1989)
Carangid larvae were recorded from 8.8% of the International Indian Ocean Expedition (IIOE) stations in the Arabian Sea and 13.2% in the Bay of Bengal. Their total contribution was 1.1% of the total larvae collected. The ...
Increased particle flux to the deep ocean related to monsoons
(Nature Publishing Group, 1989)
Monsoons cause seasonal reversals in the surface circulation of the northern Indian Ocean. In the Arabian Sea this results in the upwelling of nutrient-rich water along the coasts, making it one of the highly productive ...
Particulate carbohydrates in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1989)
Particulate carbohydrate (PECHO) was measured for 183 samples collected from 8 depths at 23 stations. The (PCHO) concentrations varied from 22 to 125 mu g.l-1 (x bar = 52.42 plus or minus 19.56 mu g.l-1 at the surface and ...
Sedimentation of particulate material in stratified and nonstratified water columns in the Bombay high area of the Arabian sea
(Inter-Research, 1989)
Sedimentation of particulate material at 22, 42 and 62 m was recorded at a station in the Bombay High area of the Arabian Sea from September 1985 to March 1986. Diatom numbers and physical structure, especially thermal ...
Biological and biochemical characterization of microfouling on aluminium panels placed in the Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1989)
Microfouling biomass was higher in the shelf waters (< 200 m) as compared with the slope waters (> 200 m). Bacteria were first to colonize on the aluminium surfaces as irregular formations during the initial stages of ...
Distribution of particulate carbohydrate in the eastern Arabian sea along 15 (degrees) N
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
The concentration of particulate carbohydrate varied from 38-158 mu g.l-1 and 19-239 mu g.l-1 in shelf and slope waters respectively. At 10 m water column the concentration of particulate carbohydrate increased with the ...
Sea surface temperature mapping using a thermal infrared scanner
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
The sea surface temperature (SST) determined by remote sensing technique refers to the skin temperature of the sea surface, while the SST measured by conventional method employing a bucket thermometer gives the temperature ...
